"Awesome Service! I hired recently to install two garage door openers. I am pleased with his service. I described him as a professional, punctual and knowledgeable. He knows what he is doing. He visited prior to start the project and described what will be needed to complete the project and show up exactly on time (sharp) and completed the job very neatly and professionally. The best part and extra mile he gave in the whole project was follow up after the job is complete which mostly no one does after receiving the payment. Thank you so much for the job."

"The job went well, very brief and surprisingly inexpensive. (I understand everyone has to live, so I expected to pay for a livelihood, but I was delighted to have my wallet only lightly crimped.) Bertie Walsh arrived around the agreed time. I gave him the two grab bars the VA decided I needed in my bathing area, an old retired vet in a wheelchair, like me. I live alone, in a condo, so I needed a handyman to install them.
I'm glad I had a professional person install them because, even if I were fit, I surely would have botched the job. This place was cut up into condos in 1987. It used to be just a red brick factory-- originally constructed around the turn of the 20th century to work with Brockton by making those metal lacing eyelets for boots. They used metal--not plywood--when they cut the factory into apartments like mine (Bertie Walsh later explained to me). If I were doing the job myself I would have been expecting wooden studs behind the tile--which would have been full of exploratory holes when I got done.
So, I pointed to the bathroom, assured myself that Bertie Walsh had all he needed, and went to finish watching the program I had on, wondering what I had to offer Mr. Walsh when he broke for lunch soon. How pleased I was when that time arrived and he said the job was done and that I only owed him $50!
Bertie Walsh explained to me that the grab bars were firm, but that he had to install them in the metal. Should they loosen, over time, do not risk injury, by all means call him.

"Sam was the only service pro to respond immediately to my request Did a thorough job, plus a needed drain pipe repair Would definitely recommend!"
Most quality caulk products provide several years of service, though specific longevity depends on formulation and exposure conditions. Bathroom areas with high moisture exposure should be re-caulked once a year to prevent water infiltration and mold growth.
In contrast, exterior window and door caulking in protected locations might perform effectively for five years or longer. Watch for signs of deterioration like shrinking, cracking, or discoloration that indicate replacement is needed.
While often used interchangeably, caulk and sealant products serve slightly different purposes that affect pricing. Traditional caulks work well for interior applications and moderate movement areas like window frames and baseboards.
Sealants, formulated with enhanced flexibility and durability, target high-movement or extreme-exposure locations. The specialized polymers in sealants result in somewhat higher costs, though standard caulk remains sufficient and economical for most household applications.
Pre-painting caulking ensures a professional finish by filling gaps and creating smooth transitions between surfaces. Professional services for this preparation work follow standard pricing of $1.25 to $4 per linear foot, depending on accessibility and preparation requirements.
While DIY approaches cost less in materials, the time investment can be substantial. Proper caulking before painting significantly enhances paint adhesion, appearance, and longevity.
Moderate temperature seasons like early fall and spring provide ideal conditions for exterior caulking projects. These periods offer temperatures that allow proper caulk flow during application while supporting effective curing.
Avoid extremely hot weather that accelerates drying before proper tooling, or cold conditions that inhibit adhesion and curing. Low humidity and dry weather forecasts further enhance application success and long-term performance.
